How To Watch Tonight’s Democratic Debate Live Stream … For Free

In the wake of the terror attacks on Paris that claimed over 100 lives, CBS “significantly reworked” its plans for tonight’s Democratic presidential debate to “focus more on issues of terrorism, national security and foreign relations,” according to the New York Times. The participating Democratic candidates (front-runner Hillary Clinton, Larry David impersonator Bernie Sanders, and longest of long shots Martin O’Malley) will have an opportunity to convince their peers within the Democratic party that they can be tough on terrorism, both domestic and abroad. So how can you watch the action?

Tonight’s debate will begin at 9 p.m. EDT and will last for two whole hours. Unlike the circus that the Republican presidential debates has become, there’s no need for a clown car to deliver the three candidates to the stage at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa. CBS will be airing the debates live on television tonight, but if you’re a cordcutter who’s interested in watching, there are a variety of ways to catch up with the free #DemDebate live stream.

Your first option is to turn to cbsnews.com/live, where the Democratic Presidential debate live stream will air for everyone to access (i.e., you do not need to authenticate with a cable provider to watch).
